that i-ire will need about thirty hours
a day of Student labor. The bulk of
the kitchen work will be done by an
experienced cook and two all-time
assistants.
Three substantial meals a day will
be served ' except on Sundays when
there- will be no evening meal.
Seventy-five girls can be served at a
time. The meals are scheduled as
follows: Breakfast. 7:30 and 8:15;
lunch, 11:80 and 12:15; dinner, 5:30
and 6:0. Miss Wyman plans to have
the dinners substantial enough that
the girls will not feel the need of
vsiting lunch rooms before dinner.
The meals will be served at small
tables in tastefully decorated dining
rooms. Prom four to six girls will be
seated at each table. The seating
arrangement wfll be changed every
few weeks to enable all the girls to
become acquainted. It has been sug
gested that the girls sing while they
are gathered about the tables and
work up a spirit of fellowship.
Such a spirit already exists in the
individual dormitories. At their week
ly meetings they have been planning
merry "get-togethers" for the near fu
ture. Such social affairs as teas and
dances are taking definite form. The
girls In several of the dormitories are
petitioning Chancellor Avery to per
mit them to name their houses.

Kansas University is trying out a
new system in athletics this year.
The plan is hold each captain per
sonally responsible for the condition
of the men and equipment. This re
lieves the coach of much anxiety and
assures closer cooperation between
the coach and the captains of the
various teams.
The Jayhawker football practice
started last Wednesday with fifty
men reporting, eight of whom were
letter men. Speed not weight is thc
aim of the Kansan coaches. Nine
teen .linemen average only 170-pounds.
Speed, hard-hitting compactness of
bodies moving so swiftly and machine-like
as to overwhelm the opposi
tion of the heavy lines of the other
Valley teams, is to be the funda
mental idea of the Kansas team, ac
cording to Head Coach Dr. Forrest C.
Allen. A light, charging backheld.
replaca'ole two or three times by
equally good men, with a fast, unified
line playing a fighting game of short
passes, forward passes and open field
running, is the hope of Kansas, he
continues to say. "University Daily
Kansan."
Kansas will enter the Valley scrap
with the lightest team on record, de
pending upon speed and forward pass
ing to win. In this connection Corn
buskers cannot help but think of the
disastrous forward passing Kansas
opened up with the last half of the
Nebraska-Kansas game last fall. A
temporary linkup last Wednesday com
posed of veterans was as follows:
Ends Ivy, McDonald.
Tackles Saunders, Jones.
Guards Smith, Fraker.
Center Hart
Quartei hack Little.
Halfbacks Mandeville, Mc Adams.
Fullback Simons.
McAdams is to handle the kicking
department of the Jayhawkers this
year and is receiving special instruc
tions in this work.
News is trickling in from Topeka
daily in legard to the prowess of the
Washburn aggregation and hope Is
running high in the Sunflower camp.
With a team that reads like a last
vear's lineun the VTopekans have
ample reason for rejf -ing Nebraska
with the disadvantagT -if hot weather
training reriod will ace the Wash
burn eleven October 2 with hardly an
even break.
"Puffy" Holmes, sports writer on
Topeka. Kansas, State Journal, has
the following to say about Nebraska's
gTidiron and track coach:
"Coach H. F. Schulte, who will b-
gln his second year as head of the
athletic department at Nebraska, has
eveloped more fine athletes from the
alleges in this section than any
ach In the Missouri Valley Confer
nee. 'Indian' Schulte came to Mis
ourl In 1913 and with his advent as
ead of the Tiger athletics, things
egan to hum both in football as well
s in track for the big Michigan st:
nit some of that "Hurry Up" Yost
stuff into the Gold and Black warriors
hat made them hard to beat. He is
the only man that took Kansas to n
rimming twice in football in two
years while coaching an M. U. team
"As a track coach, he ia in a class
by himself and has won many cham
pionships for Missouri in this branch
of athletics. He has groomed his
stars for .the Olympic games and the-
have always made great records on
the other side of the water. Two
years ago when the A. E. F. games
were held in Paris and the finals were
run in the hurdles, who do you think
was first some Eastern runner per
haps; not on your life, Bob Simpson
was first, Sylvester came second and
Bennick a close third, all of them
Missouri runners and coached by the
great Schulte."
College football for 1920 will not
be up .to the stanard of 1919.
The reason is simple enough
There are not as many experienced
players available as there were last
year. Furthermore, football in the
years to come pTobably will fall be
low the unusual heights reached in
1919.
The superiority of 1919 football was
the direct outcome of the war. The
stars of 1916 and 1917 seasons re
turned to the grdlron after a year or
two In Uncle Sam's army a year or
two which meant much in the ma
luring of athletic ability.
Then the war ened and the 1919
season taw the return of the old stars
to finish their college careers. They
came back two years older than the
ordinary college senior who is Just
rounding cut his period of activity on
the gridiron. And, of course, they
came back from war sturdier, stronger
and more fit than ever.
Last year the team that did not
have from ten to twenty-two letter
men to draw from was tho exception
This year the big schools will have
from five to ten letter men as n
nucleus for the 1920 campaign.
Then again there is a paucity ot
star players for this season that is
men who had been picked for all
American or all-sectional elevens be
fore they answered the call to arms
and Joined forces with the greatest
team the United States or any other
nation ever sent into the field.
The season is here again. Gone is
"Chick" Harley of Ohio Sts.te an;
Eddie Casey of Harvard, the two
wonder backs of last season. Gone
is Rodgers, the sensat'onal Went
Virginia fullback. Gone also are a
great many others.
But this situation does not mean
the season of 1920 will be mediocre
in any way. It simply means the
"back to normal" program which i
affecting the stratas of American life
since the conclusion of the war.
The 1920 football teams will not
have as many seasoned stars in tlr
lineups a in 1919, but Xhj game w!
be just as hotly contested. "Omaha
Bee."
Harvard's football squad has been
reduced to fifty-one men. Three
tentative elevens are in action during
daily practice on Soldiers' field and
within the concrete walls of the
stadium.
FOOTBALL DUE TO
ENJOY A BIG YEAR
CHICAGO, Sept. 28. Football is
four times as popular ths year an in
the fall of 1919, according to esti
mates made here by sporting goods
dealers.
' Four times as much equipment has
been sold for players, and reports
from colleges and high schools she-
four times as many youths are turn
ing out to try for the teams. The
increased popularity was said to be
due to the war.
4 Boys who worked in offices and
obtained little exercise before the
war, took daily exercise when they
went into the army and navy," sadi
C. E. Sidebotham, head of the foot
ball department of one athletic goods
store.
"They found it did them so much
good that when they left the army
they decided to keep it up. This ac
counts partly for the large increase in
interest in professional football."
Schools which formerly purchaser!
a dozen footballs are now buying
eight or ten dozen, Sidebotham said.
